About: I’m a caring and dependable pet sitter who loves animals and enjoys making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m experienced with animals and understand that every pet has different needs and personalities.

I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own and keep you updated so you can have peace of mind.

I’m also available to stay overnight when needed and can work around your pet’s routine and specific care. I prioritize your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness while they’re in my care. I’ll follow your instructions closely, keep their routine consistent, and make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, food, water, and care. I’ll also keep you updated so you know your pet is safe and doing well.
“Liz was great!! She stayed over the required time to look after my dogs while I was at a concert. When I came home she was playing soothing music on the tv for the dogs, they were very relaxed and calm. I will definitely be using her services again in the future.”
About: I’ve been pet sitting for about 5 years, and I really enjoy it. I’ve taken care of dogs of all ages and sizes seniors, big dogs, small dogs, friendly, not friendly. I’ve also taken care of cats and other animals! I’m a student at Wofford College, which actually gives me a pretty flexible schedule plenty of time during the week to stop by for visits, walks, or feedings whenever your pet needs it. I’m also happy to stay overnight if that works better for you and your pet’s routine. Just let me know what you need and I’ll work around it! I’ll make sure to play with your pet and give them plenty of love and attention while I’m there. I’m happy to stay for however long you’d like so they get real socializing time. Just let me know what works best for you and your pet, and I’ll make it happen!
“Bella was wonderful while I was out of the country for a week. She stayed at my house with my boy and sent updates so I knew he was happy and safe while I was gone. King loves Bella and I appreciate having someone I can trust to take care of my boy.”
“Ted and Sara did an excellent fun/job with The Duke. The Duke has extreme anxiety in a vehicle, so we reached out to Rover and thankfully we found Ted and Ted got The Duke to like him and Ted got to see The Duke’s sweet personality. Ted sent multiple pics and descriptions of the day with The Duke and Ted even mopped our kitchen floor, St Bernards can be very messy. Ted even left us framed pictures of The Duke, so sweet and thoughtful. If we travel again Ted is the one I’ll call and if you need someone who is competent and very good at his job, get Ted”

About: I love animals! I’ve been a dog and cat parent since I was a child. Growing up my dog was my best friend! I love the outdoors, and live about a two minute walk from the Cottonwood Trail which is great for walking dogs. I also have a large, fenced-in yard for potty breaks and play time. Most weekdays I am gone only a few hours at a time, so frequent potty breaks are not a problem. I have two cats so it’s best if the visiting dogs get along well with other animals. I also have a 10 year old child. He is very gentle with animals and loves to play with them! I work as a yoga instructor, so I get to be at home frequently throughout the day, giving lots of time for potty breaks and play! We use our large fenced-in back yard for potty breaks and play time! Your pet will love playing with my kid. He loves all animals!
About: I am home everyday all day long, have 6 years of fostering experience with a rescue and 16+ years caring for animals. I can take any dog no matter what size! We also have a fenced backyard, so your pup will be safe and happy here! We have 3 dogs (1 is 15, 2 are 5) and they love all dogs and will play and snuggle with their new friend. We have had 27+ fosters meet our dogs and they got along with every single one of them :) We live in Gaffney on 30 acres so small hikes and walks are possible, and we have a fenced yard for routine potty trips. I work from home every day and I have 4 dogs of my own, so your pup will fit in just fine here! We have fostered over 27 dogs over the last 5 years, and our dogs are very well behaved so if yours is very young and needs help potty training, they will learn quickly from my pack! I love the ability to be home everyday in a senior role at work, so I basically do a lot of independent work - which means I can throw the ball in our fenced yard, potty train, snuggle, and ensure your pup has a fantastic time!
“Susannah was thankfully able to help us out last minute when our previously booked sitter canceled. Susannah was very communicative and gave frequent up dates on our dogs. She also took great care of our house. Would highly recommend and will definitely book with Susannah again.”
“Kerstin was a wonderful house sitter for our goldendoodle and cat. We used her for the week of thanksgiving while we were out of the country and felt that our animals and home were in great hands!

About: I have been a animal lover my whole life. When I had to personally hire a pet sitter, I was very particular who I allowed to come into my home and take care of my babies. I was blessed to have found a wonderful sitter. In fact that’s how I became a paid sitter. She hired me to take care of her clients and personal animals when she went on vacation. With over 20 years of experience, I can provide references as well as the posted reviews. Our pets are more than just animals, they are family. I will give your companions the attention they need as well any special request. From dogs, cats, reptiles, fish and farm animals, I have the expertise you need. We all want our pets to be safe, comfortable and cared for while we are away. I'm here to assure you that I will treat your loved ones as one of my own and look forward to meeting your entire pack! I currently pet sit and book accordingly. My attention to detail allows me to care for 4 households a day. My daily routine includes greeting and walking the client and feedings as well. Some need special attention, so my time is dedicated to that. Making time to care and treat these clients as family is what I do. From walks to belly rubs, these clients have my full attention. When you’re at work and you need me to come by and let "Fido" out for a walk,I'll greet him\her with a smile. Each pet is different. Giving them their own special attention is important. I can leave you a note, text or contact of your desire on that day's adventure. Before leaving your residence, I will make sure your loved one has adequate provisions until you arrive home. I'll also sweep your pets area and make sure your home is secure. If you have any special request, then let me know. Overnight care is also provided. You can rest assure that your pet and home are my upmost concern, while you are away.

My partner works from home, and will stay with them so I can come spend all my time with your kiddos. I train service dogs! I'm currently self-employed, so I can work around your schedule, and come spend as much time with your fur baby as wanted! My partner works from home, and will be staying with our pups, so I can give your kiddo all my attention. I know how to read dog body language to ensure their comfort and meet their needs (and wants!). I've been training dogs for many years, and will use Fear Free tactics to keep their routine while helping them adjust to me as a new person, and any new aspects of their walking/ sitting in my care.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 643 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Clifton. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Clifton walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Clifton maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Clifton choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
